KATYA Jones is last year’s champion who is paired up this year with comedian Seann Walsh.
The two have hit the headlines for being the latest pair to be hit by the infamous Strictly curse after The Sun On Sunday exclusively revealed the shocking pictures of them locking lips. Here’s all you need to know…
Who is Katya Jones, how old is she and what is her background?
Katya Jones, 29, is a pro dancer who was born Ekaterina Andreevna Sokolova in St Petersburg, Russia, to a Korean mother and Russian businessman father.
She started dancing when she was just six years old and then formed a partnership with her fellow dancer – and now husband – Neil Jones in 2008.
Together they won the World Professional Latin Showdance Championships in 2015, the year they wed – and they are also four times undefeated British National Professional Champions.
Then in 2016, they became the latest real-life Strictly couple to join the programme.
Speaking ahead of the 2016 series, the Russian dancer said: “I am so privileged to be joining Strictly Come Dancing.
“I know it is extremely intense, but so am I! I am fierce, fabulous, and would love to win!”
Ed Balls was Katya’s first partner and they had a good run, making it through to week ten thanks to their comedy performances before being eliminated.
It has been rumoured that Katya may be axed from the show in 2018.
Who is her husband Neil?
Katya and Neil first dated in 2008 after a chance meeting in Blackpool and they have been dancing together ever since.
The pair, who married in 2013, won the 2015 World Professional Latin Showdance Championship.
They are also four times undefeated British National Professional Champions.
When did Seann Walsh kiss Strictly partner Katya Jones?
On October 6, 2018, Katya and her 2018 partner, stand-up comedian Seann Walsh, became the first couple of the 2018 series to be hit by the “Strictly curse.”
The pair were pictured kissing in the street outside a London pub while on a night out.
A witness said: “They were snogging like a pair of teenagers and didn’t seem to care who might see them.”
The pair took to Twitter to issue grovelling apologies to their respective partners.
Seann, who has been dating actress Rebecca Humphries for five years, offered his “sincere apologies” and called the incident a “one-off drunken mistake.”
Katya, who married husband Neil in 2013 said: “I love my husband and we are very happy together, this is not a reflection on our relationship.”

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
